How much?

 

You can have it

 

I love how we have some many XJers on here!

 

So many active XJers lol

 

Well i am located in san antonio i got another cherokee and i also know flip and evilxj i am going to be putting a lift on my jeep i live in lytle if anyone wants to come and help out let me know!

 

Nice I'm always out in Devine at my buddy's ranch we stop at lytle to get gas and food. Let me know when your ganna put your lift on I'll see if I can come out that day to help

 

It's even more awesomerest that we keep it alive. I see threads that haven't been touched in a month or so.

 

I have a question for the group.
My 00 had some issues because of a stupid owner. (me) my engine overheated which was found to be a blown head gasket. After replacing the gaskets and resembling i have a noise that sounds like a valve.
I am thinking i bent a valve so i am replacing the head. How durable are the bottom halfs of these 4.0?
Should i be concerned? There was not any coolant in the oil. And with the head off everything seems to rotate easily. Should i worry or just change the head?

 

as long as its had regular oil changes through its life with a good filter than depending on the motors mileage id say youd be fine with just the head but it couldnt hurt to redo th bottom end as well

 

It has been cared for. Burns no oil. Ran strong before the head gasket issue. 138k on the odo. The cooling system has been gone through except water pump. Its on the list.

 

When you did the head gasket, did you get the head resurfaced? You could have a warped head. And did you hear a clunking noise? Or did it sound more like an exhaust leak?

 

The head gasket was done about 8 months ago but the truck has never been back on the road other than test drives. No the head was not resurfaced . Which is why i am leaning towards a replacement head.

 

get the beefier recast 0331 head its beefed up where its prone to cracking in later model xjs
